Wako Urano,Atsuo Taniguchi,Naohiko Anzai,Eisuke Inoue,Chieko Sekita,Hitoshi Endou,Naoyuki Kamatani,Hisashi Yamanaka +7 more
TL;DR: There is an association between GLUT9 and the development of gout in Japanese men and the TaqMan method was used to determine the genotypes of intronic SNPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Methotrexate Dose on Its Efficacy and Safety in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: Evidence Based on the Variety of Prescribing Approaches Among Practicing Japanese Rheumatologists in a Single Institute-Based Large Observational Cohort (IORRA)
Hisashi Yamanaka,Eisuke Inoue,Eiichi Tanaka,Ayako Nakajima,Atsuo Taniguchi,Chihiro Terai,Masako Hara,Taisuke Tomatsu,Naoyuki Kamatani +8 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrated that extensive methotrexate use effectively suppressed RA disease activity and inhibits disability progression and found that it is critical to pay attention to patient-reported adverse reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of comorbidity affects both treatment strategies and outcomes in disease activity, physical function, and quality of life in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Ayako Nakajima,Eisuke Inoue,Y. Shimizu,Akiko Kobayashi,Kumi Shidara,Naoki Sugimoto,Yohei Seto,Eiichi Tanaka,Atsuo Taniguchi,Shigeki Momohara,Hisashi Yamanaka +10 more
TL;DR: Among patients with high disease activity, treatment with methotrexate and/or biologics and improved DAS28 scores and improved EQ-5D scores were associated with increased CCIA levels, and patients with comorbidities may not experience the same degree of benefit from recent RA treatments compared with patients without comorbridities in daily practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of and factors associated with vitamin D deficiency in 4,793 Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Takefumi Furuya,Takayuki Hosoi,Eiichi Tanaka,Ayako Nakajima,Atsuo Taniguchi,Shigeki Momohara,Hisashi Yamanaka +6 more
TL;DR: Female gender, younger age, high HAQ disability score, low serum levels of total protein and total cholesterol, high serum ALP levels, and NSAID use appear to be associated with vitamin D deficiency in Japanese patients with RA, as previously reported for patients of other ethnicities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Trends in Orthopedic Surgery Aiming to Improve Quality of Life for Those with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Data from a Large Observational Cohort
Shigeki Momohara,Eisuke Inoue,Katsunori Ikari,Kensuke Ochi,Osamu Ishida,Koichiro Yano,Yu Sakuma,Shinji Yoshida,Takuma Koyama,Naoko Koenuma,Atsuo Taniguchi,Hisashi Yamanaka +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the number of orthopedic surgeries may change in response to changes in the drug therapy for RA.
